Skateboarding and the City: A Complete History

Extremely comprehensive and detailed

Iain Borden's book is a comprehensive and great read. Terrific photos and insight gleaned from an on-high perspective. The author's London location has afforded him a broad overview of the history and prescient analysis. Having said all that it's a lot of fun to read -- I loved the UPC codes throughout the book cross-reference a curated collection of 100 ONE HUNDRED, Im sorry I have to say this again 100 videos on Youtube. Co-mingling his text and vids makes for endless cross-referenced context. I don't know if I've ever seen this done before. I loved it. Bravo!

With great love for detail and a wide spektum of skateboard history, this book is the best out there. Capturing all aspects of skateboarding and not just street skating. Well done!

Trash, waste of paper and money
